This might be my new favorite side dish.
Scalloped corn is absolutely decadent and divine, made with lots of white cheddar and topped with buttery ritz cracker crunchies. It’s baked until bubbly and cheesy and warm. It complements any comfort food dish, any protein entree and is especially great for Thanksgiving!
I’m not quite sure if there are words to describe this dish.
It is AMAZING.
It’s easy to throw together. And it feeds a crowd.
It has that classic comforting, nostalgic feel (and taste!) to a casserole that we all love around the holiday season.
A dish that reminds you of home – that’s what it is!
Corn is notoriously hard to photograph, especially when it’s a corn casserole type… thing. It’s just so… yellow. It doesn’t look like much – it’s difficult to make it look incredibly appetizing.
But the sweet, cheesy, crunchy crispness of this dish is beyond good.
It has texture, so much buttery flavor and is so easy to make.
Almost embarrassingly easy!
This dish starts with frozen corn, which is already super simple and accessible.
The corn is combined with milk, eggs, tons of cheddar and buttery crackers.
Next, it’s poured into a dish and baked! Groundbreaking.
After it bakes for a while, you sprinkle more crunchy crackers on top.
Then you bake it until golden. I like to sprinkle some fresh herbs on the top for a pop of color.
Finally, serve it!
See? So easy.
I love a casserole like this because it holds the heat. It’s great to have on the table or at the buffet for your holiday meal. It holds up! And again, goes with everything.

-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the half and half, eggs, sugar and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Fold in the thawed corn and half of the cheese. Stir in ½ cup of the crushed crackers.
-
Spread the mixture into the baking dish, spreading it out so it’s in an even layer. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
-
While the corn bakes, stir together the remaining crushed crackers and the melted butter until the crackers are moistened.
-
Remove the corn and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Top with the buttery crackers. Return the dish to the oven for another 20 to 25 minutes, until the edges are set and golden.
-
Remove from the oven and top with the fresh chives. Serve!
Dream crunch.
